QUINCY, ILL. -- Each year, Quincy locals Linda and John Groves put on an Avenue of Lights show in Moormon-Wavering Park. We asked John Groves if he made any changes with the type of lighting you'll see this year. He says the majority of lights will consist of C-7's, more commonly known as night lights.

John Groves told KHQA you won't see LED lights just yet. He's waiting for them to become more popular in hopes of a price reduction.

Quincy's Avenue of Lights opens on Thanksgiving and runs through New Years.

Quincy isn't the only place you can see a great light display. Keokuk's City of Christmas display in Rand Park and Hannibal's Trail of Lights begin November 25.
